Why is Thé noir vanille caramel classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and what additives are typically present in such flavored tea bags?

The tea is labeled NOVA 4 because it combines natural tea leaves with added flavor extracts, sweeteners, caramel colour, maltodextrin and stabilisers that are mixed during industrial processing to create the vanilla‑caramel taste.

Is this vanilla‑caramel black tea suitable for special diets such as vegan, keto, or halal?

The base tea is plant‑based and keto‑friendly, but the vanilla‑caramel flavor may contain dairy‑derived ingredients or animal‑based caramel, so vegan status depends on the specific formulation; the product contains no alcohol, making it generally acceptable for halal diets.

What is the best way to store an opened pack of this tea to keep its flavor and safety?

Store the opened tea bag in a cool, dry place inside an airtight container or resealable bag, away from moisture, strong odors and direct sunlight, and consume within a month for optimal taste.
